Sustainability Story

Our brand started with a mission to bring traditional Mexican craftsmanship to Europe. From the beginning, it was important for us that our production was done ethically and sustainably. We went on a journey to find the best suppliers, workshops, and materials. After months of searching, we finally succeeded. Today, we combine ancient craftsmanship techniques with innovative production processes to create environmentally friendly & long-lasting pieces, showing that we can work on a sustainable future while preserving wisdom of the past. But this wasn't enough for us. We wanted to increase our positive social impact and reduce the environmental impact of our production. So we started partnerships with a Mexican NGO to provide education to local kids and began our journey to become a certified Climate Neutral brand. We gathered data from our company and partners to estimate our CO2 footprint and offset a total of 77 tonnes of CO2! But it doesn't stop there. We have committed to 2 CO2 reduction measures that we will work on for the coming 2 years, in addition to our other sustainability activities. We believe the fashion industry can't be ethical without being sustainable and taking responsibility its environmental impact. By incorporating Climate Neutral into our sustainability activities, we hope to set a new industry standard and inspire others to follow.
